        Further evidence that the Chinese are right: we don't have a real democracy in America. USPS is ridiculously popular and an overwhelming majority don't want to see it privatized and yet we're on the precipice of completely gutting it.

          the Chinese? I'm pretty sure you can pull a random person off the street and ask them if we're really a democracy and they'll laugh and tell you no.

            Fair enough, in my head I was thinking about that Qiao Collective article someone posted here recently.

            OK but half of the time they're saying "No, we're not a democracy, we're a REPUBLIC" because they apparently don't know how to use a dictionary or encyclopedia.
